Formulation of national adaptation planning and/or other adaptation planning processes Readiness and Preparatory Support Page 5 of 58 Peru is "particularly vulnerable" country to climate change impacts. After the COP20 in Lima, Parties committed to strengthen their adaptation actions. Thus, Peru decided to include adaptation commitments in its Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) with the objective to meet by 2030 the following goal: "Peru adapts to the adverse effects and takes advantage of the opportunities imposed by climate change”. The Peruvian NDC promotes sustainable development in the long term, generating social, environmental and economic benefits. In 2017, Peru placed a landmark in the country’s process of implementing the Paris Agreement, by establishing the Multisectorial Working Group for the Nationally Determined Contributions (MWG-NDC). Conformed by 13 Ministries and the National Center of Strategic Planning (CEPLAN), this body defined the road map for the implementation of the mitigation and adaptation targets under the NDC. On December of 2018, the final report with the roadmap1 was approved by the MWG-NDC. Furthermore, the new Framework Law on Climate Change states that all adaptation measures have to be incorporated in the sectorial and regional planning as well as budget instruments. The sectors that the country needs to address on a priority basis have been identified based on available scientific information, processes of formulation of management and planning tools and consultations with relevant sectors, regions and civil society. The thematic areas finally prioritized are Water, Agriculture, Forestry, Fisheries and Aquaculture, and Health. For each area, objectives and targets were developed2. To address adaptation effectively, five crosscutting components where action must be taken were also identified: disaster management of climate-related risk, resilient infrastructure, poverty and vulnerable Brief summary of populations approach, gender approach, and private investment in adaptation to climate the request change. These adaptation goals seek to increase responsiveness, adaptation and resilience in the population and livelihoods. The MWG-NDC was in charge of providing technical information to guide the implementation of the NDCs34 in sectorial areas. Now the government of Peru is seeking with GCF support to include the participation of regional governments5, in the planning and implementation of adaptation measures for the five thematic areas included in its NDC. This process will involve representatives of 24 regional governments and the Lima province. Other key stakeholders such as representatives from indigenous peoples groups, private sector, civil society, and academia will be invited to participate. The proposal aims to advance the following: 1. Diagnose the five adaptation thematic areas prioritized in the NDC and identify capacities and resources needed at the regional level as well as gaps to implement actions in those areas. 2. Support enabling conditions needed in regional governments to develop strategies, strengthen capacities and engagement with key stakeholders to implement adaptation actions, including crosscutting considerations. 3. Create project/ program pipelines and structures for adaptation measures in the five prioritized thematic areas and identify subsequent concept notes for project proposals. 4. Design and develop a system for monitoring and evaluating adaptation outcomes set in the NDC, as well as financial resources used for adaptation measures. The project´s goal is to mainstream the defined priorities for adaptation measures in the NDCs and the enabling conditions in the regional planning to ensure local governments actively contribute to the implementation of prioritized adaptation measures. Thus, this Readiness and Preparatory Support Page 6 of 58 proposal will help advance the planning for the implementation of the 5 prioritized adaptation measures defined in the Peruvian NDC with the support of regional governments. Therefore, the Readiness NAP’s deliverables of outcomes, respond to a strategic sequence: The deliverables of outcome 1 will help to match the NDCs work under MWG-NDC and the prioritized ongoing and planning adaptation measures at the regional level. Gaps for the enabling conditions needed at the regional level will be also identified. The deliverables of outcome 2 will help incorporate the NDC adaptation measures into regional planning and budget instruments. In addition, we expect to address others important enabling conditions and strengthen them. The concept notes on adaptation, outcome 3, will help design at least one project idea for each of the prioritized adaptation measures in the NDC and move from a planning stage towards concrete project ideas that will help catalyze financial resources for adaptation measures. Finally, outcome 4 will create a system for monitoring and evaluating adaptation outcomes and financial resources at the regional and national level. In addition, the National Planning Agency of Peru (CEPLAN) will support the inclusion of NDCs in the regional planning and elaboration of budget systems. The GCF support will allow Peru to advance on enabling conditions for the implementation of the adaptation measures needed to meet the goals established in the five prioritized adaptation thematic areas in the NDCs,
